Amazing. I wish all classic exercises had this kind of progression where you can always track increments and progress. It's so easy to plateau due to an unidentified deficiency that you are not targeting through any exercise, but still is the limiting factor.

Awesome video! Thank you!! Chest to bar pull ups have been a mystery to me for a long time how to achieve them, even in the past where I could do 6-10 pull ups. I can only clear my chin. I think your leg-assisted chest to bar pull ups progression is an important way to get thr mind-muscle contraction at the top when you're not yet strong for a chest to bar pull up. Also the scapular depressionss are important as well.

This is a very helpful instructional video on the fundamental movements, mechanics, and muscular development that need to be mastered in order to do a perfect pull up. As someone who is able to do 10 consecutive pull ups (pulling up from a hang with the unbent elbows to getting my chin over the bar 10 times) but is not engaging my scapulae, I am going back to focusing on mastering the 12 steps demonstrated in this excellent video. The one critique I offer of this video is that the 12 steps outlined do not progress incrementally from least difficult to most difficult. In particular, steps 3 (scapula depressions from a dead hang) and 4 (scapula pulls while hanging) are-in my view-far too difficult for someone who has not developed the muscular strength to manipulate their scapulae from a dead hang with full body weight. Steps 5 (inverted rows) and 6 (inverted rows with bent knees) are much more doable and should come before the full weight scapula depressions and scapula pulls. Those full weight dead hang movements belong somewhere later in the step progressions.

Don't forget this guy is quite skinny. When I was smoking, drinking, no gym in my early 20's, I could do easily 20 and more proper pull ups, because my weight was around 70kg, which makes it easy. When you weight 100kg, it is absolutely different story, much harder to lift those heavy legs...Even professionals struggling, body weight is very significant

I have been doing inverted rows for a bit over a year now. I did progress some, but if the cue of getting your chest all the way to your hands is important, then that means I have to downsize from decline rows back to horizontal (straight body) rows, as I can only do 8 of those all the way up. I remember struggling to progress past horizontal and hearing advice at the time that if you stop the exercise at strict technical failure than you're leaving gains on the table, so I went on to decline regardless. Will downsize now and see if it will be different this time. I started doing bicep isolations now, maybe that was the limiting factor. I am able to do around 8 decent pull-ups per set by the way, but neck level, not all the way up to chest. UPDATE: just tried chest level negatives and WOW this is a whole different beast compared to neck level negatives (which I immediately found to be pretty easy) or even regular neck level push-ups. I can hold it for 15-20 seconds and then slowly descend, then slowly descend again, but on the third descent I fail. Who knew that a couple extra inches make such a big difference?

Great breakdown of all the necessary prerequisites. I have a question though about step 3 - is it really 30 seconds hold on top, for 15 reps, and then 3 sets of this in total? The amount of 45 reps with 30 seconds each is almost a whole workout session in itself. How long a pause do you recommend between each rep and each set?

I never managed to achieve any visible progression in the high pull ups. I feel like my body structure is kind of incompatible with this exercise. However, your progression video seems very reasonable. I may give it a try. Thank you! Note: don't you think that some triceps strength is also needed here? When I try I feel most tension on the triceps.

2:05 30 sec on the top for each 15 rep? Is that right? This would be 7:30 mins total of active engagement only. That would be just 1 set. For 3 sets that would be almost 25 mins. I cannot hang on the bar for that long and I am quite in shape (I can do passive hang for about 2 mins on a straight bar). Someone please clarify if I've understand correctly.

I’ve been wondering, if you use pull ups as an accessory for other exercises, is chest to bar unnecessary? I mean if you build the same muscle with just chin over the bar, is it just waste of energy to do chest to bar?
@GymnasticsMethod10 ай бұрын
If you think about it, if you do full scap depression and adduction, you involve and contract your back muscles like crazy. However, for lats and arms in general, you don’t need chest to bar. It’s just a principle. Same as if you wouldn’t do part ROM push-ups either

Me watching this knowing there's nowhere to use rings or any low bars near me. They cut all the branches on trees that are low enough to be able hang rings from. It gets too cold to do stuff outside for half the year. Which rules out using a swingset at a playground at least half the time. Can't afford to go to a gym and the ones I've checked don't even have the right equipment anyways. There's excersise parks but no calistenics parks, all the equipment is for seated excersise or stationary bike looking things. I can't install a properly sturdy pull up bar indoors or outdoors because renting. I've looked for freestanding pull up bars but they all say not to use them with rings to avoid tipping. I could use a sandbag on them maybe but it's still rather iffy and i don't want it crashing down on me. I've tried doing the bedsheet in a door thing and doing inverted rows from that but the doors here are made from cardboard so you can guess how that went. The only progression i can do are scapular, negatives and soon banded pull ups with my doorway pull up bar. I could maybe try hanging rings from the doorway pull up bar but if you pull it the wrong way it will fall and the only way i can place it on the only door i can place it on in the house my back is towards a staircase. And the reason i can't place it on a different door is the rest of the doors are in a corner so the side grip that's supposed to push against the doorframe won't catch or it'll be off center which also risks the whole bar falling. I can't turn the bar around without removing the door to that room, which also can't do cause, renting. So while I'd like to be able to work my way up to it i can't really start on the easier variations. I've tried everything i could think of. Only option i have is to stick with what I'm doing and hope i don't injure myself...

@gymnasticsmethod At 2:30 you said 15 reps and hold 30 sec at the top for 3 sets?! 30 sec hold for each reps is 7 minutes and a half hold for each sets for a total 22 minutes 30 sec hold (3 sets). That's a lot! Maybe the 30 secs hold is at the last rep of each set?
